Cheap 3D printer FAQ

Where will I find the best cheap 3D printers?

Even though popular retailers such as Amazon and Walmart are great for discounts, I'd always recommend checking the manufacturer stores as well. If you head to Anycubic, Elegoo, Creality, and the rest, you'll often find the steepest savings - particularly on new machines. In fact, they're normally better than any other reduction out there.

How do I know if the cheap 3D printer deals are actually good?

It can be difficult to tell whether an offer is actually good or just 'OK' when it comes to cheap 3D printers, so it's sensible to put in some research before hitting checkout. To find out whether you've struck gold, I'd recommend dropping in on price history sites like Camelcamelcamel. This will tell you everything from lowest ever prices to average cost, allowing you to make a more informed decision rather than being swept up in the moment.

The GamesRadar+ team and I have been hunting bargains for a long time now, and these price-comparison sites have never let us down. It's how we decide what to feature on 3D printer deals roundups like this, actually; if the reduction in question isn't better than the average price for the item, it won't appear here.

Should I wait for Black Friday or Prime Day?

Although the year's major sales events are your best opportunity to secure a bargain, that isn't to say you shouldn't shop at any other time. As is so often the case on this page of cheap 3D printers, you can get record low prices at other times of year if you keep your ear to the ground.

Still, the best discounts do tend to happen after Thanksgiving as part of the Black Friday 3D printer deals. If you want maximum value for money, it's not a bad idea to hang fire in case a better price cut comes along at the end of November.
